An Electronic Design article gives an overview of ZigBee technology and starts a series of hardware reivews. Many robot builders are discovering that ZibBee is an inexpensive way to get a wireless link between a robot and a computer, useful for either recording telemetry or issuing commands to the robot. There's a lot of cool hardware coming out and Electronic Design is going to be reviewing some of it, starting with a review of Daintree Networks Ethernet to ZigBee adapter. Another great source of USB-ZigBee hardware for robots not mentioned in the article is New Micros, Inc.
